When passing interface parameter to ping -6:
$ ping -6 ::11:141:84:9 -I eth2
Results in:
PING ::11:141:84:10(::11:141:84:10) from ::11:141:84:9 eth2: 56 data bytes
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
Initialize the fl6's outgoing interface (OIF) before triggering
ip6_datagram_send_ctl.
Fixes: 13651224c00b ("net: ping6: support setting basic SOL_IPV6 options via cmsg")

I agree that fl6 is used unitialized here, but right after this is:
memset(&fl6, 0, sizeof(fl6));
fl6.flowi6_proto = IPPROTO_ICMPV6;
fl6.saddr = np->saddr;
fl6.daddr = *daddr;
fl6.flowi6_oif = oif;
so adding a memset before the call to ip6_datagram_send_ctl duplicates
the existing one. Best to move the memset before the 'if
(msg->msg_controllen) {'

Hi,
Thanks for your comment. As far as I understand the flow, any changes
done to fl6 inside ip6_datagram_send_ctl is to be disregarded. That's
how I understand the comment:
/* Changes to txoptions and flow info are not implemented, yet.
* Drop the options, fl6 is wiped below.
*/
Thanks,
Aya
